Who will come out on top in the MUL vs PES Dream11 PSL 2022 encounter?
The Sultans head into this game as overwhelming favourites because of what has happened in the tournament so far. They’ve flexed their muscles to the top of the points table, while Zalmi have struggled. Sultans also defeated Zalmi in the two team’s previous encounter of the tournament in Karachi.
Mohammad Rizwan (10.5 credits): Rizwan, the Sultans captain, has been super consistent with the bat. He has made 215 runs in his five innings of PSL 2022 with a strike-rate of 138.70, including a terrific 53-ball 82 in the match against Zalmi.
Shan Masood (9.5 credits): Masood is above even Rizwan in the runs-chart for the Sultans. The elegant left-hander has struck 275 runs from his five innings with an average of 55 and a strike-rate of 151.09.
Khushdil Shah (9 credits): Shah has been tremendous with the ball for Sultans, having picked up 9 wickets from his 5 matches of PSL 2022 with an economy of just 5.78.
Tim David (8.5 credits): David played a key role in Sultans’ win over the Zalmi, scoring an unbeaten 51 off just 19 deliveries, including 2 fours and 6 sixes.
Shahnawaz Dahani (8.5 credits): Dahani may have been a touch expensive so far but he has also been amongst the wickets, with his 5 scalps from four matches featuring a 3 for 41 in the match for Sultans against Zalmi.
Blessing Muzarabani (8.5 credits): In context of the high-scoring game played in Karachi, Sultans’ Zimbabwe recruit Muzarabani bowled an effective spell of 1/34 off 4 overs in his team’s win against Zalmi. With his tall stature and pace, Muzarabani could prove a valuable budget pick in PSL.
Mohammad Rizwan (wk & c), Shoaib Malik, Shan Masood, H Zazai, Tim David, Ben Cutting, H Talat, Khushdil Shah (vc), Imran Tahir, Blessing Muzarabani, S Dahani
